The conclave to elect the next successor of Peter will begin on Wednesday, 7th May. On Tuesday, 6th May, the Votive Mass 'Pro Eligendo Summo Pontifice’ will be offered at both the 8:15 a.m. and 12:10 p.m. Masses.
United with the whole Church, we beseech almighty God that the Cardinals who will enter the conclave may humbly obey the promptings of the Holy Spirit and, with the Spirit’s guidance, choose the most worthy man to be Christ’s Vicar on earth.
